Blew up sunkist box because of R=6 after getting used to rx8 6speed. lol

LOL!!!!

And how was the engine? :P I hear they don't like going backwards very much...

Edit, also just how hard did you try and slam it into "6th"?

Urgh... Golf/Polo is just trying to make me look like a retarded driver... Turning left, better turn on those windscreen wipers

Eh, you get used to it after driving these BM's for a while...

its annoying when you have to switch b/n an euro and jap car all the time. used to drive an astra for work a while back and every single time i got back in the r33 the wipers would go on

So true.

3 hours or something of driving the rx8.. 2-3am f**king zombie mode, I had left my car at hers, dropped her off jumped into mine, drove home, 100kph, trying to get into "6th", it wouldn't, so I kept doing it and eventually forced it in, let go of the clutch pretty quickly, BANG! Never reversed again

lol knob. also saw you drive through dande yesterday i think. have you got club stickers on, and had windows open? car needs more low if so

i hate driving with windows closed, even in the rain. A/C just pissed me off..

    • I thought it could be an issue because the standard plate was flexing when stressed. Maybe the original gear set will hold a bit better without flex? Last time on the dyno it made around 670nm at the hubs. Now it have bigger turbo and better intake but have not been on a dyno yet. The car is being used from family trips to drag race events. So the shifts can be a little violent. It is grinding if I shift to fast so was thinking I should overhaul it soon.
    • From the factory on RB26s there's a fitting on the intake manifold collector/"plenum" that provides pre-throttle boost signal. That's how they did it back in the day, I figure it's fine to replicate it.
    • I would be surprised if that wasn't the issue. It's probably telling you, that even if you remove the plastic liner, you may have some other clearance issues that may occur too in some scenarios. IE, tyre to guard. It looks like someone has already rolled the lip, but you may still have issues in the future IE, turning and hitting a bump etc. The fact it changes how bad it makes the noise when you are going backward vs forward is highly indicative that it's the tyre rubbing. They do make a terrible sound, even if you're only pushing a project car that has a liner hanging down on a tyre!   Has the car been lowered? If it has been, what is the measurement from the centre of the wheel hub to the lip of the guard straight up?

    • Mark's a bit smarter than people give him credit... He'd convince the person that is to become dead, to drive him to the forest first. That way his car has no evidence in it, and he's free to dispose of their vehicle permanently how he sees fit too...
